Easy Mulled Wine

Ingredients

• 4 cups dry red wine
• 2 (2 inch) pieces cinnamon sticks
• 1 teaspoon whole cloves
• 1 teaspoon whole allspice berries
• 1 large strip of lemon peel
• 1 large strip of orange peel
• 2 tablespoons sugar, or more to taste

Steps

1. Combine red wine, cinnamon sticks, cloves, allspice, lemon peel, and orange peel in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Heat gently, but don't boil. Stir in 2 tablespoons of sugar, and once dissolved, taste to see if you'd like to add more.
2. Keep hot on medium to low heat for 20 minutes to let the flavors infuse the wine. Serve your mulled wine hot in glasses or mugs.
